However, if the bladder is over run with bacteria, and more specifically, if the bacteria attach to the walls of the bladder and begin to multiply, the body will become overwhelmed with too much bacteria to eliminate it effectively.
A nuchal cord occurs when the umbilical cord encircles the fetal head. It is sometimes referred to as the cord around the neck. Often it is documented as nuchal cord x3 which means the cord is wrapped around the fetal head three times.
Should be measured in the neutral position. On the average, the extended nuchal translucency is 0.62 mm greater than the neutral value, while in the flexed position it is on the average 0.4 mm or less than in the neutral position (3). The umbilical cord may be round the fetal neck in 5â10% of cases and this finding may produce a falsely increased nuchal translucency (may add 0.8mm to the measurement).
